This milestone event will celebrate the achievements of its graduating students while showcasing the university's ongoing commitment to excellence through a series of transformative upgrades.
Strategically located on the outskirts of Kano, Al-Istiqama University offers a serene and focused environment, ideal for academic pursuits.

The university is currently undergoing a massive upgrade to further enhance its infrastructure and learning environment. Key improvements include the tarring of all internal roads, which will be illuminated by solar-powered streetlights, ensuring safety and sustainability.
Senator Abdurrahman Kawu Sumaila, the Founder and Chairman of Al-Istiqama University, emphasized that these upgrades are part of a broader vision to position the institution as a global leader in teaching and research. "Our goal is to bridge the gap between education and character, especially in northern Nigeria. We provide a conducive environment that enables our students to pursue their education while developing strong character," he stated.
The university's hostels have also been revamped, providing both male and female students with comfortable and serene living spaces. These upgrades reflect the institution's dedication to creating a holistic environment that supports both academic and personal growth.
One of the hallmarks of Al-Istiqama University is its unwavering commitment to discipline and safety. The university maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy towards drug abuse, ensuring a healthy and secure environment for both students and staff.
Since its inception, Al-Istiqama University has been dedicated to bridging educational gaps, promoting global study, and fostering experiential learning, interdisciplinary scholarship, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit—all rooted in the fear of Allah.
As the university prepares to host its convocation ceremony in February 2025, it invites prospective students, parents, and stakeholders to witness this exciting new chapter in its journey.
